Adding another Groups section to site

So the site i’m working is called CaraDaCapoeira.com. The buddyboss theme provides me with a group function that I can’t do much with really but can be utilized for site groups like “Capoeira Rocks” or something like that. What I need now is to be able to have another “groups” section for Capoeira Schools across the world. I have 700 in excel files and would like to know what the best way to implement this other “groups” section on my buddypess site to be seperate from the groups that came with the general buddypress installation. It will need to show a Photo, group info, phone number, location, instructor etc. I suppose i could use the group page template and just copy it but not quite sure what to do after that. I’m certain i’d have to alter the database but i’m just not sure the best way to go about doing it and what functions to to copy and adjust in order to get this done.

Any and all help is welcome. I’m using WP v 3.2.1 and buddypress 1.2.9
